Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge(FTTC29)!

It is time for Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge(FTTC29)!!! Thanks so much to all of you who participated in last week's scoring challenge! Keep reading to find out who won!

The Friends of Flourishes blog design team are bringing you exciting and different challenges each week. Everyone can PLAY and anyone can WIN! Make sure you continue reading to find out how.

This week Dee Jackson is our challenge host. Dee is challenging us to a color challenge. The color choices are red, olive, and black with one other neutral color. So, the skies the limit as long as you use these colors. We look forward to seeing what you create!!!

Let's go see what the blog design team has created using these colors!!!

Next up is Silke Ledlow . Silke is using the newly released Gerbera Daisies stamp set. This is gorgeous, Silke. I love the wonderful red gerbera daisies with the cut work and dimension. Silke is using the Flourishes classic white cardstock. Silke colored the gerbera daisies using the Flourishes Copic Color Collections in Poppy, Field and Warm Neutrals. Silke added some diamond glitter to the center of her daisies. She finished her card with some wonderful two-tone ribbon and silver pearls. Beautifully done, Silke!!!

Last up this week is Cindy Haffner. Cindy is using the newly released Gerbera Daisies stamp set, too. This is beautiful, Cindy!!! I love how Cindy has white daisies with detailed golden centers and the area around her flower is colored. Cindy is using Flourishes classic white cardstock. She colored the daisies with Flourishes Copic Color Collections in Daffodils and Spring Greens. I love the added dimensional butterfly which comes in this set. Cindy finished her card with some texture, lace, and gingham ribbon detailing. Beautifully done, Cindy!!!
